The module does not work with unicode data in the repository.

I installed the plugin but it gave the following error when I tried to run it :

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/trac/web/main.py", line 406, in dispatch_request

UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xc3 in position 7: ordinal not in range(128)

I don't know much python, but my investigation into issue made me believe that this is a problem when trac is attempting to encode a utf-8, witch trac believes is ascii, into utf-8.

Diff for a fix to this problem

The patch I submitted earlier broke the viewing of files, I did a more deep research and found a way that it works for me. There may be other places to put a to_unicode call, that are not causing problems with mine repository (path names?)

The better solution would be to inform the output, witch is a pipe as far as I can see, to return unicoded strings from it's read method. I don't know hot to do this.

Patch that do not break the view file operation.

ops. The patch has the fix for the other issue (ticket #2013). Just ignore the second group of changes.
